Vendor Contracting & Management
Vendor relationships can be a source of competitive advantage—or compliance risk. At Hinshaw, we help clients navigate every stage of the vendor contracting lifecycle with a focus on clarity, compliance, and efficiency. We provide practical guidance on structuring, drafting, and negotiating third-party service provider agreements that support your business goals and meet regulatory expectations.
We understand the unique pressures facing financial institutions and other highly regulated entities, and we regularly advise on contracts and vendor oversight programs in alignment with OCC, FDIC, Federal Reserve, CFPB, and FFIEC guidance. From upfront diligence through renewal or termination, we work as an extension of your team to help you manage risk and move forward with confidence.
Areas of Focus
More Than Just Contract Review
We approach vendor contracting as part of a broader business and compliance strategy. Our team helps clients evaluate vendor dependencies, streamline contracting processes, and embed legal and regulatory considerations into every stage of the vendor relationship.
